Q. What are the precautions to take in case of placenta previa?
Hello doctor,
My wife is 15 weeks and five days pregnant. Recently, she had an episode of a moderate amount of bleeding per vaginam. We immediately shifted her to the hospital where she was given some conservative treatment, and a USG was done. It was found that the inferior margin of the placenta was covering the internal os. The baby was healthy as per the reports. I am anxious. Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- There is nothing to worry about since everything is fine in the scan. Taking proper rest and hormonal supplements will do.
However, if you have a doubt, then get back to me with the reports so that I can guide you further. Take care.

Thank you for the response. Just let me know, is it placenta previa? If so, what precaution should we take and how?

- Yes, it is previa. But, there is nothing to worry about. It will move up as the pregnancy advances.
- Precautions are no lifting heavy weights, intercourse or bumpy drives.
